Webb's first image

And heeeeeeere we go!

The space community has been abuzz this week after NASA unveiled five stunning, highly anticipated new images from the James Webb Space Telescope. While the pictures stirred the awe and wonder of normal people, they also became a target for good old-fashioned idiots—er, conspiracy theorists—who believe that the photos are fake, or really evidence of enormous aliens, or that Webb is a giant space laser, actually.

Welcome to the age of the Webb Truthers.

Before we proceed any further, though, it’s worth heeding the words of Nietzsche: “If you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes into you.” A few hours down the rabbit hole of any conspiracy theory might just have you putting on the old tin foil hat yourself—so be warned.

There’s a wide range of inane theories and speculations about the new Webb images’ origins, with some claiming that the pictures were created by CGI, Photoshop, Hollywood special effects, or some combination of all of the above. Some are even saying there might be a more diabolical reason behind Webb, suggesting that it could be weaponized against people on Earth.

“Hollywood is capable of great visual effects,” one Twitter user wrote in reply to a NASA tweet about the telescope. “Just sayin’... This is all fake.” Another user claimed that the photos are fake because “every star has the same pixel pattern.”

While some believe the photos are fake, some go in the opposite direction to suggest the images are proof of something even more outlandish. One user suggested some of the images could actually be evidence of a giant head floating in space à la Guardians of the Galaxy.

Perhaps the most intriguing set of theories, though, accuse the Webb of being some sort of space weapon or spy satellite. In one particularly lengthy and rambling post, one Reddit user lays the case that NASA and the U.S. government at large aren’t telling us the whole truth about the Webb’s tools and capabilities. We’ll spare you most of the details, but the gist is that Webb is actually a satellite that can be used to spy on Earthlings with incredible precision. Unsurprisingly, it’s given many readers the chance to add to the conspiracy stew with their own theories.

“How to test a space-to-Earth direct energy weapon without making anybody SEE we're testing a space-to-Earth direct energy weapon,” one user replied. “Because with this sort of advanced precision, a space based direct energy weapon could target any target ANYWHERE on the planet.”

Some people are just happier dealing with things they can touch.  Technology that allows them to hear or see things you can't see with the naked eye makes them nervous because it suggests they don't know everything.

So that's where they have been hiding that giant Jewish space laser.
